Nitin, who is desperately in need of a hit, has pinned so many hopes on Ishq. He gave up on the action image that he has been trying for and did a romantic entertainer, which caters to the youth. Vikram Kumar of '13 B' fame is the director of this movie. PC Sri Ram and Srikar Prasad are the cinematographer and editor for this film. Audio composed by Anup Rubens has become popular within no time. Ishq looked like every bit of a movie that would fetch Nitin that much needed hit he has been looking for. So did it?
Story:
Rahul (Nitin) and Priya (Nithya) fall in love after few irrelevant but interesting incidents. But like every other love, this couple's love too hits an obstacle. That is in the form of Priya's brother Shiva (Ajay). Rahul and Shiva have a past that created differences between them. Now Rahul has to convince Shiva to win his love. What he does forms the rest of the story.
Performances:
Nitin is very good in an energetic and entertaining role. He tried a new look that suits the character and he has worked on his expressions. He is confident from the start to end. There are no heavy fights or critical dance moves. Nitin did his best to keep it simple. On a whole he did a very fine job.
Nithya Menen is cute, but very short! She looked odd at times as she is too short for Nitin, who himself is not a very tall guy. Her performance is sweet. Ajay is terrific. Watch out for his expressions in the scene when his father tells him that he wants Nitin to marry his daughter. Ajay has proved time and again that he is a very good actor, but somehow he didn't get his due till now.
Nagineedu is Okay. Ali is good in his limited role. Others all did a decent job in their respective roles
With a stellar cast of Abhishek Bachchan, Sonam Kapoor, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Bipasha Basu, Bobby Deol, Sikander Kher and Omi Vaidya, this remake promises to pack one heck of a punch. PLAYERS is scheduled to set the screen ablaze in January, 2012.

Story:
A typical commercial treat, the story begins with a 30 acre land in a village near Warangal. This is eyed by two powerful locals Konda Reddy (Dev Gill) and Lala Goud (Pradeep Rawat). Incidentally, both happen to be sworn enemies and in between this, anyone who comes to buy the land will end up getting killed. Amidst this, the owner of the land goes to Hyderabad and sells it to one Ranga (Sunil) and doesn't give these details. With the hope of getting his sister’s marriage done and clearing all his loans, Ranga buys it and comes to the village. It is here he knows the truth. Few situations get him close to Konda Reddy. Ranga sees that he can come out of this safe through the help of Anitha (Isha), daughter of Lala Goud. However, his attempts to approach her make her fall in love with him and he falls in further trouble. What happens after that forms the rest of the story.
Artist Performances:
Sunil deserves the brownie points for not just his performance but his dance and fights. His six pack body is another highlight. Isha Chawla has got natural sex appeal written all over her and she brings some glamour. Dev Gill was used in the right way and he was good. Pradeep Rawath made his presence felt and was contained. Raghu Babu and Ali were there for comedy. Kota was brief. Pragathi, Sudha Rani, Satyam Rajesh, Arundhati Sudhakar were there to fill the gaps.

Story:
An outdated tale, the story is about Surya (Ravi Teja) who owns a gym and he has a close friend Sri (Sriram). Surya is in love with Meghna (Deeksha) and after some yes and no, she finally starts loving him. Meanwhile, Surya has few issues with Raja Goud (Pradeep), the bad guy. Sri goes to Saudi for job and there he falls in love with Vaishnavi (Bhavana). The twist arrives when Surya goes to Saudi to celebrate the birthday of Sriram. But Sriram is in trouble and he gets arrested by Saudi police for the murder of Vaishnavi. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.
Artist Performances:
Ravi Teja has done his best to infuse energy and momentum in the film. However, there were scenes where the wrinkles were seen. Deeksha is sexy but she definitely needs to take a course on acting. Rajendra Prasad was overboard. Sriram was okay. Bhavana was brief. Pradeep Rawath was good. Brahmanandam brought few smiles. Dharmavarapu, Krishnudu, Supreet, Jayaprakash Reddy were there to add some value to the script.

Siddharth suits the role to T and he has carried it out with elan. He is good at such youthful roles. Amala Paul spreads her charm with her smiles and eyes, she was nice. Suresh was elegant. Ravi Raghavendar was impressive. Surekha Vani was matured. Balaji was good, Shyam brought few smiles. The actors doing the role of Siddharth's friends were very nice.
D.V.V.Danayya is producing this movie from may 2012 on his universal media banner and it would be released for Dasara, this year in october.Pawan plays a honest and witty tv news reporter in the midst of channels filled with yellow journalism in this flick.
Titled as 'Cameraman Gangatho Ramababu', the name itself has generated huge sparks in Film Nagar. According to reports, Pawan Kalyan gave an immediate consent to this title and as expected, Pawan Kalyan is Journalist Rambabu in the film. What needs to be known is whether the other character, ie., cameraman Ganga is a male or a female. If it is another male, then there is no doubt the film will become a multi-starrer as Puri generally casts sparkling actors for such roles.
If it is female, then the movie may get the color of Tamil movie RANGAM, is the talk of Film Nagar now. 'We cannot describe the excitement in words. A big 'ooooooo' for Puri Jagan is what we can say and this is our dream to see our heartthrob actor in the direction of Puri...', stated a Pawan Kalyan fan with overwhelmed joy.
Direction: Shakun Batra
Genre: Romance
Duration: 1 hour 50 minutes
Story : A young jobless architect spends a drunken night with a hairstylist he has just met. The two discover the morning after that they had got married the night before. Both want the marriage annulled. But over the next 14 days, a lot happens between the two.
Movie Review: Rahul Kapoor ( Imran Khan) is a 25-year-old boy. He brushes his teeth three times and irons his socks and underwear - everything that his parents want him to do. He is like a puppet living out their dreams and desires. So when he meets Riana Braganza ( Kareena Kapoor) who has dumped six Mr Rights and is everything he is not, sparks obviously fly. Trite, trite, right? Wrong.
With only the faintest trace of the Hollywood hit, What Happens in Vegas (2008), Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu shows what first-rate direction and a cute but brave script can do to the done-to-death story of opposites getting attracted to each other. EMAET has heart, charm and an enviable lightness of being. And it certainly helps that the lead players are in fine form. Like quality wine, Kareena seems to improve with every passing year though you find shades of Geet (Jab We Met) in her part. And Imran brings just that right amount of balance to the difficult part of an uptight, gawky individual who evolves with every passing day. The movie is essentially his journey from boy to man. With its neon lights and flash, Las Vegas too is an important character adding to the film's mood and melody.
